January Snowmen

The weather outside::::
Partly cloudy, cold, and a bit damp!

Coffee, yogurt and a bowl of cinnamon oatmeal!!
As I look outside my window::::
I wonder when the hard winds will arrive.. Not a day for me I think! I'll stay inside today!
As I look around the house::::
Christmas has been packed away, seasonal decor remains in some areas. I have begun the hateful task of sorting through books, chinaware, and clothing to take to the rescue mission.
What I'm wearing today::::
Red long sleeve tee and blue leggings.
Currently reading::::
Ann Voskamp's book 1000 Gifts. I started my new gratitude journal. but still have some to read from Ann's book! I take it slowly to savor it!
On the TV for this week::::
Christmas Vlogs on Youtube
I have discovered some favorite vlogs over the last week. I love Kirsten and Jeorg, a German couple living in England ... so charming! And I really enjoy Talasbuan, a young family living off the grid in the northern forests of Sweden!

Something fun to share::::
I am lookiing so forward to the end of this pandemic... We have a new young couple who has moved in very near us.. They are Chinese and we have approached them with the "hand" of friendship everytime we have seen them out walking.. They have reciprocated as we do in these days..They have the cutest little boy and puppy and they walk every day rain or shine; The Lord has put them on my heart to possibly disciple them, mentor her as an older woman taking a younger woman under the wing.. This came to me as I was watching a great youtube... and I challenge every mother and father to watch thisIt will bless you.. David Barton is a renown speaker and historian... Very timely; give it a chance... it is wonderful!!!!!
Favorite photo from the camera::::
Our favorite new place to dine out... Awesome in every way!
Prayers, Inspiration quotes, Devotionals::::
Dear God, nothing takes you by surprise. You know everything that has transpired in the last few years in our nation.. I won't take your time reminding you but please know that our hearts are wrenching from the knowledge that our nation has fallen beyond the pale into the hands of an evil entity that has been brewing for a long time, but who has reared its ugly head mightily in the last few weeks. Deception, deception, deception!!! You know best what is to be done, so we wait patiently for your help! Thank you for your peace that passes all understanding.
I like your January snowmen, very cute! And I think your blog is where I first found the recipe for the spicy potato soup we're having for dinner tonight, thank you for posting a link to that recipe a while back! Have a wonderful week!
ReplyDeletePraying for our nation especially this week, and for safety and peace. May God turn hearts back to Him more and more as we see "the day approaching". I hope that the Lord will open opportunities for you to share your faith with your new neighbors. Being a kind and friendly neighbor is the best way to get acquainted, and then the Lord will take it from there, I am sure. Looks like a fun new place to dine. You are blessed to have choices. We live in an area where there are few choices, but we make the most of what we have to work with. We are just thankful we can go out to eat as so many still are unable to do so. Yes, praying for our nation in many ways.... Have a blessed and wonderful week.
ReplyDeleteIt must be supper time because looking at your menu is making my stomach growl! Guess I better get cooking! I hope you can stop by:
